« If you are not on my side, you are against me. If you don’t gather in the harvest with me, you scatter it. »
22 So Aaron said, “Do not let the anger of my lord become hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.
23 For they said to me, ‘Make us gods that shall go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’
24 And I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them break it off.’ So, they gave it to me, and I cast it into the fire, and this calf came out.”
25 Now when Moses saw that the people were unrestrained (for Aaron had not restrained them, to their shame among their enemies),
26 then Moses stood in the entrance of the camp, and said, “Whoever is on the Lord’s side—come to me!” And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.
The Israelites had departed from God while Moses was on the Mount.
They had begun to worship a golden calf which Aaron was pressured to make for them.
This made Moses ask, “Who is on the Lords side” (Exodus 32:26) ?
- Even in God’s service, people have varying motives.
While many may profess to be for God, their claims may not be entirely true, considering their secret lives.
However, some Christians are true friends of God; in private and in the open.
- Even when they make mistakes, they don’t give excuses or see to cover them up; they repent immediately.
Their objective is holiness unto the Lord.
Are you on the Lords side?
As there are two sides to a coin, so there are to the spiritual also: the good and the bad, Heaven and hell, God’s kingdom of light and Satan’s kingdom of darkness.
You are either on one side or the other. Joshua 5:13ISV
“Now it happened that while Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and much to his amazement, he saw a man standing in front of him, holding a drawn sword in his hand! Joshua approached him and asked him, “Are you one of us, or are you with our enemies?
- Like the angel in the above passage had his sword drawn, so does everyone in the spirit realm.
But who is your sword working for or against?
With every word you say and every action you take, your sword is swung, for or against God.
If you conspire with people to sin instead of rebuking them, you are swinging your sword against God.
If you consciously give erroneous interpretations of the Bible to fellow believers, you are clearly against God and on the side of Satan.
- So many tongue-speaking Christians are with the devil.
This is dangerous.
I pray for Gods mercy on such people.
Whose side are you truly on?
Application – Examine your heart to see if you are truly on The Lord’s side. Make amends in repentance today if you find yourself wanting.
